1. Mingle - The first step to meeting someone new is to talk to someone. This is what the ribbons are meant to do, of course. Maybe you notice someone with the same color ribbon as you are, and decide to strike up a conversation. It's also entirely possible that this whole ribbon idea seems foolish so of course that could be a topic as well. Those who decide to pair up with like-colored ribbons will be given a sheet of items to find (certain flowers, hidden marbles, dice, and other small objects) to look for as a sort of ice breaking scavenger hunt. Those who find a significant number can get free drinks!
   
2. Dinner Party - Orders are taken at the tables when people come to sit down, with the choices ranging from roast chicken, steak, and pork to more vegetarian friendly options that include a vegetable soup, tofu burgers and other assortments. Wine for adults and juice for those who are underage are offered, with water also being an option for those who don't like either. Remember, in order to partake you need to find someone with the same color ribbon as you!
   
3. Dancing - Throughout the night there's an assortment of music in style and tempo, and many attendees are already cutting a rug. At times there's even a dancing competition between two pairs to see who dances the best! It's all in good fun though, since there aren't really any prizes. Of course, attendees are required to dance with partners who have the same ribbon color as them! It's also encouraged to participate in the dances with someone you've yet to meet before.

1. This is not an OOC popularity contest, please don't treat it as such.
   
2. Bidding wars are HIGHLY encouraged.
   
3. Bidding closes OOCly on January 16th.
   
4. Dates are up to players to organize, the dates will not be played out in this post.
   
5. You MUST have fun!!!

1. Food And Drink - There are so many smells that sometimes your nose might be confused. From the scent of roasting meat, to the smell of sugary sweet cotton candy, the myriad of scents mingle throughout the whole carnival. There's an entire section of picnic tables for carnival goers to take a load off and eat their fill. The admission ticket even paid for complimentary drinks! However, there are plenty of stalls that are offering much more interesting options, including alcohol (for adults only!). Food ranges in price of course, and unfortunately there are a few stalls that might be overpricing their food...
   
   
2. Rides and Attractions - The carnival isn't complete without classic carnival rides. There's a ferris wheel, teacups, several different merry-go-rounds, as well as a SUPER ROMANTIC Tunnel of Love. For the more adventurous there's even a few smaller sized roller coasters as well as an interesting looking magically powered water slide that's powered by a couple of local wizards and a "Doctor". One of the most popular rides seems to be the bumper cars, where each car has the chance to change shape on impact. Lastly for those who are brave enough there's a 2 story haunted house of mirrors full of jump scares and atmospheric music.
   
   
3. Games and Stalls - THIS is where all of those stalls that were signed up for are. Of course, they make up the bulk of stalls, though the ones that are food oriented border the area mentioned earlier. Other booths such as shooting ranges, pingpong ball toss, fortune tellers, toy building booths and even a couple of booths where you can fish up your own little fish pet are here. Careful though, some of these booths are lowkey ripoffs, since they were largely built by volunteers. Should you get scammed it's wise to try and find security rather than handle it yourselves.

1. Randomized Plays - These plays are held nightly, but they're not your traditional plays. Participants are chosen from the audience who paid admission! On top of that, the roles are randomly assigned. You never really know what you're going to get, so in the end the plays come out a lot like improv. They're also largely hilarious, unintentionally or otherwise as often the two plays wind up intermingled! Once, Rumtumtugger wound up playing the part of Belle, while Gaston had to do a solo song all on his own... In the end, it'll be up to you what role your character plays, but it's never quite what's expected. Behind the scenes must be a riot no matter what!
   
   
2. Obstacle Course - One attraction at the center of the carnival seems to weave around the other three, and out into the grounds itself. It's a complicated series of obstacles, from a pit of inky, oily water, to slippery bridges and swinging portions that need to be dodged. Portions of the course are even quite vertical, offering a strenuous climb as part of the challenge. This course is not for the faint of heart, and many will find themselves having to give up halfway through, or even being disqualified by being knocked out of the course. Those who choose to work together might make it farther but in the end only one can win. Be prepared for betrayal if you take that route...
   
   
3. Eating Competition - There's not just one eating competition during the week of the carnival. Instead, several are held throughout the week. Hotdogs are first, followed by pancakes, then burgers. After that, towards the final three days of the carnival the bigger competitions start.
   • Hotdogs - how many can you eat in 5 minutes?
     
   • Pancakes - how many can you eat in 5 minutes?
     
   • Burgers - how many can you eat in 8 minutes?
     
   • Whole Chickens - You have 3, can you eat them all in 12 minutes?
     
   • Whole Turkey - You have an entire turkey, how much can you eat in 10 minutes?
     
   • 6 Tier Chocolate Cake - Finish the whole cake to win. (Hour Time Limit)
   Those who have supernatural abilities are given an extra challenge to make things fair. For those who eat themselves sick there is a medical tent nearby, and of course plenty of room for a crowd of spectators.
   
   
4. Jousting Competition - The colorful, campy and overall cheesy look of this jousting competition almost looks like a childish version of the competition. However, the prizes are real. Instead of the prize for the winning "knight" the winner of each match will be able to earn a fair sum of redbills! It's enough to cover the entry fee paid for the competition and then a couple hundred on top of that. Each participant chooses their weapon, but they all have different strange additional abilities depending on their color...
   • Yellow - sparkles on impact
     
   • Red - screams upon impact
     
   • Green - slimes whatever it hits
     
   • Blue - freezes what it touches for 3 seconds
   For this competition special abilities beyond that of a normal human are dampened by special units hidden in the ring. Disabling them would of course, wind up in the participant being disqualified.
